Lin Xiaotian let out a soft sigh, his expression turning slightly apologetic as he looked toward Wang Haotian.
"Alas, I am truly sorry, Messenger Wang, that I was unable to provide any significant information regarding this matter."
Just as he was about to continue speaking, Zhao Lingyue suddenly interrupted him, her tone sharp and completely lacking courtesy.
"Do not make excuses if you cannot provide proper information, then simply admit that you are incompetent… or is it that you are deliberately hiding something from us?"
The moment her words fell, the atmosphere inside the hall instantly turned cold and tense.
Just as Lin Xiaotian was about to respond calmly and rebuke her in a more measured manner, Han Leu suddenly stepped forward, his expression turning furious. "You little brat do not dare to speak to our Sect Master in such a tone and manner!"
A faint killing intent leaked from his body as his aura surged slightly, causing the surrounding air to grow heavy.
